A great woman once said, “Women must try to do things as men have tried. When they fail, their failure must be a challenge to others.” These are the words of the US pilot Amelia Earhart(1897—1937), a pioneer in aviation(航空领域), who was the first woman to fly solo(独自地) across the Atlantic Ocean.

Her story ended in mystery when she disappeared without a trace(踪迹) during a flight over the Pacific Ocean. Theories about what happened to Earhart were proposed, but nothing was ever confirmed—until now. A study published in March conducted by Richard Jantz from the University of Tennessee, US, determined that bones found in 1940 on a remote Pacific island belonged to Earhart. Following the discovery, the world’s memories of the legendary female pilot were brought back to life.

Earhart was born in 1897. When she was young, she was very interested in stories about women who were successful in male-dominated(男性为主的) professions, such as engineering and law. But in 1920, Earhart’s life changed after her first experience of being a plane passenger. As soon as the plane left the ground, Earhart knew that she loved flying, so she found herself a teacher and started to learn how to fly for herself. To pay for the lessons and buy a plane of her own, she took all sorts of jobs.

In 1932, Earhart flew solo across the Atlantic Ocean, becoming the first woman ever to do so. She also designed a flying suit for women and went on to design other clothes for women who led active lives. When she was nearly 40, Earhart was ready for a final challenge—to be the first woman to fly around the world. Her first attempt was unsuccessful

but she tried again in 1937 with her navigator(领航员) Fred Noonan. But one month later, they disappeared in bad weather in mid-flight.

Even though it’s still not clear how she ended up on the island, we’re one step closer to finding the answer. And no matter what, Earhart will be forever remembered as a brave pioneer, both as a pilot and as a woman.

(　　)4.When did Earhart fly across the Atlantic Ocean alone?

A.In 1920.  B.In 1932. C.In 1937.  D.In 1940.

(　　)5.What started Earhart’s interest in flying?

A.Her parents’ influence.

B.Her teachers’ encouragement.

C.Her first experience as a passenger.

D.Her childhood love for engineering.

(　　)6.Which of the following words best describe Earhart?

A.Open-minded and patient.

B.Creative and helpful.

C.Talented and outgoing.

D.Pioneering and determined.

(　　)7.What’s the article mainly about?

A.The discovery of Earhart’s bones.

B.What made Earhart a great pilot.

C.The inspiring life story of Earhart.

D.Some possible causes of Earhart’s death.

The idea that you can use humour, laughter, and play to make you healthier probably seems too simple to be true. However, it is really true and simple. The sense of humour, laughter and play has an important part in keeping you healthy.

Use “the best medicine” to treat the blues with a sense of humour, which is closely tied to laughter. Laughter is infectious. Have you ever heard a big laugh of a young child and been able to keep yourself from smiling? When laughter is shared between people, it makes them closer to each other and increases their happiness. Smiling is the beginning of laughter and a smile is also just as infectious as laughter is. You can experience something by smiling
